My good friend Greg Lewis is the host of a radio show called Rock It Science on WNTI FM 99.1 FM in NJ. Greg shot some video of my New York band, The Jazz-Manian Devils in 2016 at Hat City Kitchen. Unfortunately the lighting and crowd noise were a problem. However, Greg worked his unfathomable video magic and voilå!! We were on FIRE that night and Greg saved the day!! Here is the video in all its glory. You gotta check this out.
